Abstract
A method for limiting wireless connectivity roaming of a multi-function device (MFD) is disclosed. For example, the method is executed by a processor and includes failing to re-authenticate on a current access point of a wireless network, accessing a list of access points within a user defined boundary, selecting an access point in the list of access points based on a parameter of the access point, and establishing a wireless communication path with the access point.
